You’ll drive up to a home that looks sharp from every angle. No more cracked panels catching your eye or wondering when the next coastal storm will cause expensive damage.
Your energy bills drop because your walls actually insulate properly now. The constant maintenance headaches disappear—no more scraping, painting, or emergency repairs every few seasons.
Most importantly, you’ll have real peace of mind. When Long Island’s nor’easters and summer storms hit hard, your siding stands strong. When it’s time to sell, buyers see a home that’s been properly maintained and protected from our harsh coastal climate.
We’ve been protecting Long Island homes for over 20 years at Expressway Roofing and Chimney Inc. We’re family-owned, fully licensed, and we actually live in the communities we serve—including right here in Brookhaven.
We understand what Squassux Landing’s waterfront location means for your home. The salt air that corrodes cheap materials, the nor’easters that test every fastener, the summer humidity that breeds mold—we’ve seen it all and we know exactly which products hold up and which ones fail.
You won’t get a sales pitch from us. You’ll get honest advice from contractors who’ve installed thousands of square feet of siding across Suffolk County and learned what works through real experience, not manufacturer marketing.
First, we inspect your current siding and measure everything precisely. We check for water damage, structural issues, and insulation problems. No surprises later—you’ll know exactly what needs to be done and what it costs before we start.
Next, we remove the old siding carefully, checking for any underlying issues that need attention. We’ve found everything from rotted sheathing to missing house wrap on Long Island homes. If we find problems, we fix them properly the first time instead of covering them up.
Then we install your new siding using manufacturer-approved methods and climate-appropriate materials. Every piece is properly secured, sealed, and finished to handle our coastal weather extremes. We clean up completely when we’re done—you won’t find nails in your driveway or scraps in your landscaping.

We install insulated vinyl siding that’s engineered for coastal climates—not the thin builder-grade stuff that cracks in winter. Our premium vinyl options include built-in insulation that can cut your energy costs by 15-20% while standing up to Long Island’s temperature swings and salt air exposure.
For homeowners who want maximum durability, we’re Elite Preferred James Hardie contractors. HardiePlank fiber cement siding resists everything our coastal environment throws at it—salt air, hurricane-force winds, fire, pests, and rot. It comes with a 30-year warranty and typically lasts 50-100 years in our climate.
We also handle cedar shake and wood siding for clients who prefer natural materials. The key is proper installation with marine-grade fasteners and choosing wood species that can handle our humid summers and harsh winters. Every material we install is specifically selected and installed for Long Island’s demanding coastal environment.
Siding costs depend on your home’s size, the material you choose, and any repairs needed underneath existing siding. Quality vinyl siding typically runs $4-9 per square foot installed, while fiber cement like HardiePlank ranges $7-15 per square foot in our area.
For a typical 1,800-2,200 square foot home in Squassux Landing, you’re looking at $9,000-18,000 for premium vinyl siding or $14,000-32,000 for fiber cement. These prices include proper installation, all trim work, house wrap if needed, and complete cleanup.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down material costs, labor, and any additional work required. No hidden fees or surprise charges when we discover issues during installation—we discuss everything upfront so you can make informed decisions.
Fiber cement siding performs best in our challenging coastal environment. It doesn’t absorb moisture like wood, won’t crack from temperature changes like cheap vinyl, and the salt air doesn’t cause any deterioration or corrosion issues.
James Hardie specifically engineers their HardiePlank products for different climate zones, including coastal areas like Squassux Landing. Their siding resists humidity, hurricane-force winds, and UV exposure while maintaining its color and structural integrity for decades without painting or major maintenance.
If budget is a primary concern, insulated vinyl siding from manufacturers like CertainTeed or Alside also performs well here. The key is avoiding thin, builder-grade vinyl that becomes brittle in cold weather and warps in summer heat. We only install vinyl rated for our climate zone.
Most residential siding projects take 4-8 days depending on your home’s size, architectural complexity, and weather conditions. Simple ranch homes often finish in 4-5 days, while larger colonials or homes with multiple dormers may take a full week.
We start early each day and work efficiently through each phase—removal, any necessary repairs, installation, and final cleanup. You’ll see steady progress daily, not a job that drags on for weeks while materials sit exposed to weather.
The timeline can extend if we discover underlying issues like rotted sheathing or missing insulation. We’ll give you a realistic schedule upfront and keep you informed immediately if anything changes during the project.
Most siding replacement projects don’t require permits in Brookhaven Township when you’re replacing existing siding with similar materials and not changing the home’s footprint or structure. However, permits may be required for certain situations.
If we’re adding insulation, changing from one siding type to a significantly different one, or doing structural repairs to sheathing or framing, permits are typically required. We handle all permit applications and inspections if needed—it’s included in our service.
As fully licensed contractors familiar with local building codes, we ensure all work meets current requirements whether permits are required or not. This protects you from potential issues during home inspections when selling your property.
Our labor warranty covers all installation defects for one full year after project completion. If panels come loose, gaps develop, trim pieces shift, or any installation issues appear, we return and fix them at no charge to you.
Material warranties vary significantly by manufacturer—James Hardie offers 30 years non-prorated coverage, while premium vinyl typically comes with 25-40 year limited warranties. We help you understand exactly what’s covered under each warranty and handle any manufacturer claims that arise.
We also stand behind our workmanship beyond the formal warranty period. If you experience issues that are clearly related to our installation methods, we make it right regardless of timing because our reputation depends on satisfied customers throughout Suffolk County.
We can often match existing siding, but success depends heavily on the age, manufacturer, and specific product line of your current siding. Siding installed within the last 10 years is usually easier to match than older, discontinued products.
For siding that’s 15+ years old or from manufacturers no longer in business, we sometimes recommend replacing entire wall sections rather than attempting to patch small damaged areas. This approach ensures better color matching and long-term performance.
We’ll honestly assess your specific situation and provide options that make sense both aesthetically and financially. Sometimes investing slightly more in a complete wall or side replacement delivers much better results than trying to save money with patches that never quite match properly.
